Under a plan, a memorial plaque will be put on the wall of the former Pedagogical Institute of Klaipėda where Ramanauskas-Vanagas studied in 1937-1939. The move was backed by 23 Klaipėda councilors, with one vote against and three abstentions.

"Ramanauskas-Vanagas is also fighting today alongside all those who value, respect and protect Lithuania as a free and independent country with the rule of law," Klaipėda Mayor Vytautas Grubliauskas said during the municipal sitting.

Ramanauskas-Vanagas lead partisans in the southern region of Dzūkija. Together with other partisan commanders, he signed the Lithuanian Partisans Declaration of February 16, 1949.
